Course Description

As technology and science advance over time, challenging halakhic situations arise which require Halakha to provide a response. In this course we will analyze how Halakha adapts and evolves to provide solutions to such conundrums.

We will be exposed to the flexibility of Halakha and its nuanced wisdom in many interesting, relevant situations including traveling to dying relatives on Shabbat, plastic surgery, intellectual property and relationships with non-Jews.
